Over on the Crowd Space blog I posted an introduction to online photo sharing. If you aren’t already familiar with Flickr or SmugMug, check it out:

Never in the history of humankind has it been so easy to take photos and share them. Digital cameras are everywhere. Your cell phone probably even has a half-decent digital camera built into it. So the question is: when you run events for your community group, team, or church, do you take pictures? Do you share them afterward?
The Joy of Sharing
Photography is amazing; it captures a moment in time like nothing else can. We all love looking at photos of special events. Proud parents, grandparents, coworkers, parishioners, and pretty much everyone else with a heartbeat will flip through photos when given a chance.
For really special occasions we put photographs in special places like frames on the mantle and photo albums on the bookshelf. But what do you do with photos from the not-quite-really-special events? What about the little league semi-finals or the church picnic?
